History:
The SBD7 Flamingo was a light(er) dive bomber developed by Major Industries in 1940. It first saw action in the Battle of Midway, 1942. It is mainly land based, but can take off from and can land on carriers.

Description:
It's quite easy to fly. Taking off is easy enough. Landing is the tricky part. It vital that you conserve energy and maintain a good speed. When you're just above the ground (and I mean JUST above the ground), pull back on the brake like there's no tomorrow. AG1 for hook. Flight controls normal.

    @MajorSix no I just downloaded and went. Idk I think uploading can break stuff sometimes. Or maybe it's cause you used shocks which by the way is genius aesthetically but they like to do weird things when you scale them.

    @Chrisk1993 Did you mirror the plane? If you mirror it, the engine goes spastic.
